I believe this ruling is worse than the voluntary rule. It gives many the very false impression that their wakes are harmless if created more than 600' from shore. Nothing could be further from the truth. Anyone that has sat on a dock for any length of time could attest to that. Many times you'll get a huge wake hitting the dock and there is no boat in sight and there had not been one for some time. These wakes travel for miles with very little reduction over very long distances. More "feel good" legislation.
